Abstract
This paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy C-spherical shells (FCSS) algorithm that is an extension of the type-1 FCSS algorithm proposed in. In our proposed method, the membership values for each pattern vector are extended as interval type-2 fuzzy memberships by assigning uncertainty to the type-1 memberships. By doing so, the cluster boundary obtained by the interval type-2 FCSS can be found to be more desirable than that of type-1 FCSS in the presence of noise. Experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of our method.
